Being Deadly with Damian Munday

NAIDOC Week is an opportunity to listen, learn, and celebrate the strength of the world’s oldest continuing cultures.

Across #SodexoAustralia, we’re sharing the voices and stories of our people and communities throughout the week, reflecting on what this year’s theme, 50 Years of Deadly, and being ‘deadly’ means to them.

Indigenous Affairs Lead – East, and proud Gunggari Kamilaroi man, Munday, Damian says:

“To me, being ‘deadly’ means staying connected to culture, honouring our Elders, and walking strong in our identity.”

As we celebrate #50YearsofDeadly, Damian reminds us that culture is a source of strength, resilience and pride that continues to shape future generations.

Thank you to everyone sharing their reflections and messages throughout NAIDOC Week.
